The Punisher

THE PUNISHER REVEIW
Genre: TPS (third person shooter)

Gameplay: The punisher features some very fluent combat, both with guns and Frank Castle's "quick kills". You almost never feel strugling to fight because of great controls, and the game never cheats you by putting guys behind you to shoot you in the back. The game operates well to different styles to. If you prefer to run in and murderize everyone, go ahead. Unless on hard mode this is a very fun way to play through the game the first time. Like to duck and cover? The game never punishes you for being on the safe side, and in some situations this is even better. And in this way you can even interact with the environment and find new things that might not be found runnin and gunnin. And this is also the only way to play on hard mode. 9/10

Graphics: Done very well, though some cutscenes do look a little like the the place was made from "cookie cutter" items, it is still fairly good. Also is the grusome quick and special kills the punisher can pull off, they are done perfectly in animation and most of the time detail. Shoot a guy and a bullet hole will appear, shoot enogh parts will come off. BLOOODY! 7/10

Story: Based off the adventures of the punisher, fans of the comic will enjoy this. And those who are entire newbies to the punisher won't be confused by the storyline. 7/10

Sound: The sound and music is well done in the actual game segments, but durring the cutscenes ow! The speach of some characters are off set sounding robotic in some cases, and a lot of these cutscenes when watching and listening are just stupid. An interrogation cop slams his fist on the table....(pause for 5 seconds)....starts to talk normally. If this was as good as in the game this would be at 10, but its not. 6/10

Extras: And when you beat levels and the game you get...points to buy seemingly useless upgrades and challenge mode. Whats challeng mode? Its a near impossible task that after you fail 50 times you get comic book covers. YAAAAAAYYY, useless unreadable comic covers. 3/10

Replay value: Except to try the levels again to try out upgrades and for fun, This is good for about 1 and a half passes. 3/10

Multiplayer: There is none but this is sort of understandable, but co-op could still work.

Overall: 7/10
Pros: Great action gameplay, Most of every thing else is done ok to well.
Cons: After you beat the game you'll want to punish yourself for buying it.
Verdict: Great Rental and thats it.
